The deluxe God of War Ragnarok artbook is bloody gorgeous
Good lord, this deluxe new God of War Ragnarok artbook is beautiful. It's also very expensive (damn).
While the standard version sits at a fairly reasonable $49.99 via Amazon (opens in new tab) (which is par for the course when it comes to coffee-table art books), a special The Art of God of War Ragnarok weighs in at a wince-inducing $129.99 (opens in new tab) instead. However, that price point isn't too surprising in context; with a "leather-like clamshell case and cover, along with two gallery-quality prints", this is the definition of a premium edition and one of the better gifts for gamers we've seen recently.
It looks entirely different to the standard version, too.

Because the god of thunder himself will be challenging Kratos and Atreus in the game when it comes out at the end of this year (seemingly joining Freya as the story's main antagonist), that's only right.
